Advice for complete newbie who's struggling a bit!

[decoy]

im with nearly everyone with the itaste vv3 its an awesome little starter batt ,I faffed about with a cig a like and the cheap tat from petrol stations till I lost the charger and got a itaste 3
they were originally got to get me throw work with out killing peps and I had no intention of giving up smoking but when I got the itaste vv3 I stopped smoking cause it was more of a faff to roll a ciggy than use the ecig, I may still partake in the odd recreational ciggy but im down from 3 packs of 50g tobacco to less than 20g a week
would also say that the bit that sits on the top makes the most diff(attie/atomizer)and would say get a mini protank or an evod or better yet both (can keep diff flavours in them)
ordering a vamo v5 or such like from fast tech for use at home would also be an idea if you get in to vapeing because you can just swop the batts in it but it can take up to a month to get it from fast tech(think my vamo starter kit was £27)

hello and welcome pw, lots of sound advice there and useful links, hope they help you out, and yes I'm another who started on cigalikes (skycig) they did help me cut down... and I used them when I couldnt get a smoke, so they put the idea of vaping into my brain but didn't properly satisfy me.

I also started full time vaping when I ordered an itaste vv starter kit. I managed with the one battery for a month, because you can charge it (on a mini usb lead) and carry on vaping whilst it was charging, but that's limiting if you are out and about. I ordered a second itaste vv and rotated the pair.

I now have a massive collection of vaping gear but I still use my itaste vv's when I'm out as they are brilliant little beasts

Sorry to be away for ages, everyone!
So... I wondered if anyone out there might be around to confirm I've got this right, before I click and buy something here!
I'm going to get an iTaste VV3 from myepack - that's the kit, right..?
But if I understood correctly, I also need to buy some juice, separately, to use with that..? So I'm going to buy a few from joosejuice... But can anyone advise me on how many ml I should buy in total..? I figured I'd try a range of those smaller 10ml tasters, but... not sure how long each of them lasts, and how many I should buy..? I'm heading away on a trip for 6 weeks, and thought I would try to buy enough to keep me going for 6 weeks. I probably smoke around 10-20 cigarettes a day, so... anyone got any advice on how many ml of juice I would need to last me 6 weeks..?
I'm so grateful for everyone's advice so far!, and if anyone's out there and can give me a quick reply, I'd be even more grateful..!

I'm new to this (2 weeks in) but I bought 3 10ml bottles originally for me & other half and we still haven't finished them - if that helps at all (I doubt) but they seem to last a while from my experience ?pw77

[wibble]

I'm not even going to comment on what kit is right though as I have ab.so.lute.ley no idea !!! but someone will help you for sure

[wibble]

Oh and I forgot . I used to smoke about 20 a day, other half used to do 10-15 a day .. so 35 in total and 3 10ml bottles still have stuff left .. wouldn't wanna say how many you'd need but if you get a mixture of flavours like I did you wont get bored and if you don't like one you have others to fall back on I wasn't keen on vanilla but it goes well if mixed with cherry

[Ripshod]

Doesn't anyone do 3ml testers?

[pw77]

thanks!, that's already helpful! Nothing like some advice from experience, haha! Ok, so that gives me some idea of how much to get, anyway. And yeah, a bit of a variety of flavours, I thought that might be a good idea, as I have no idea what i'm going to like and what not...
As for the kit itself: nope, I had no idea either! But I saw that iTaste VV3 mentioned by several people in this thread who definitely DO sound like they know what they're talking about, so... that's good enough for me!

I went for fruit/sweet flavours as I know I like sweets pw77 LMAO !
It's all a matter of taste I think. I have ordered 3 new flavours that came yesterday but can't use them for a week so as they have to be 'steeped' (I know now what that means ! - put them away and let them 'grow')

As a complete novice I'd say get a few flavours you think you might like and get a few you're not sure about - but then my advice is rarely good so just ignore me LOL

Where are you going for 6 weeks ? anywhere nice ?
